This camera is one of the best point and shoot cam I've ever seen. I'm using it for the last 3 years and its working fine. Picture quality is too god. Just point and shoot. No extra knowledge is required. Slick, easy to carry and easy to point. there should no question regarding picture quality. Awesome cam. I'm proud to have a one like this. Just carry it like a cigarette box and can shoot anything anywhere any time.

i bought this camera when I got really into photography and wanted a sleek, quality and affordable camera, and man has it been great! I've had it for about 2 years now and it's still working great! :)
i particularly use it for taking pictures of my Siberian Huskies, and it captures their gorgeous features and takes outstanding photos!

I purchased this particular camera b/c I have seen the commercials and have also heard a lot of great stuff about it from friends. Also, at the time I purchase it during the time my baby was in the Nicu and wanted to capture ever moment. I've been using it ever since for every event in my baby's life and it does the job well.

I like this camera a lot, it takes wonderful closeups, has a fast recovery time between shots, and good battery life. It is small enough not be be a burden and is easy to use. My only complaint is the lack of a viewing window which is not uncommon in small cameras. The sun tends to wash out the screen and make composing pictures difficult in full sun. This is not a fault of the Nikon camera as all screeens will do that in direct sunlight.

This is my first camera, and I am completely in love with it. It goes everywhere I do, and I have since discovered I have quite the love (and eye) for photography. People look through my portfolio and always ask, "hey, where's your big fancy camera?" That is quite the compliment for not only me, but for Nikon. I could not be more pleased with what this can do for a pocket camera.

While researching replacement I learned the image stabilization is not always enabled. Huh? Going through the menu I could not find way to enable. Then while going through the mode options I found it. Trying with it off and in "auto" showed the image stabilization worked, at least in one exaggerated instance. I wish the manufacturers would have enabled the auto image stabilization function. It looks like they addressed my comment regarding the button pushing feature in the replacement model as it is different. I bought another camera anyway for the improved zoom (12x) but I think this camera for size is pretty good. I might give it as a gift.

Great pictures in the light, but once the flash comes into play at night, the quality drops dramatically. It's my 5 year old's first camera so it's perfect.

Blurred image

Size is OK but my hands shake a bit and the image stabilization isn't able to cope. Even when trying to be still, 10% of pictures are blurry. It also is a little to difficult to press the picture button which causes the camera to rotate slightly and adds to the blurry picture. I'll have to get something with better image stabilization.
When using a tripod, the pictures are good. I was able to take some pictures at dusk with the night time setting and these turned out.
